Hi, Just thought I would kick off with this one as it is one I often get asked. For me it has changed my faith - this said I still have a strong faith & a lot of my friends say I am an inspiration etc which I dont feel like. They say that because I just keep going & dont get down too often with all the crap that happens.
How has it changed my faith? I have gone back to a lot of the basics, I like some of simple prayers & I rely even more on Christian music. I can listen to that & get more out of than trying to concentrate on reading the Bible. I have also learnt that there are a lot of strong Christians out there who come out of the wood work & encourage me & help me when I ask (which I am trying to learn to do more). y are happy to listen to me, to take me to appts etc. They are my family & the ones I turn to when I need help - too often unfortunately.
Thought I would throw this out there....sorry those that dont know me I dont write short posts well. There is no right or wrong, just different ways to handle life.
God bless you all

Sometimes it does, sometimes it makes me dout.

In the beginning when first dx with ms it was denial and proved to everyone I was still normal. Many many many years later after quitting my job and now being on disability I have become much closer to God and nature. Without my faith I don't think I would have been able to handle MS nearly as well as I have.
